Gu Zhengchen's voice was loud and reached the ears of many sergeants.
If you can’t endure a ten-mile run with a heavy load, how can you endure a twenty-mile, thirty-mile, sixty-mile, or even a hundred-mile march in the future?
The mission of the Quanzhou Guard sergeants is to protect Quanzhou Prefecture, and Quanzhou Prefecture is not small.
The pirates might land in the north or invade in the south. Would the Quanzhou Guard sergeant have to stand dozens of miles away and watch the enemy kill the people of the Ming Dynasty, burn down the houses of the Ming Dynasty, and plunder the women of the Ming Dynasty?
Doesn't the ability to run on the run rely on physical strength to run? How can you protect the people and Quanzhou Prefecture when you are running like this for ten miles?
"go ahead!"
Huang Senping shouted sharply.
Then thousands of households and hundreds of households shouted in unison, and the sergeant followed suit!
Power surges out of the body!
When all the sergeants ran ten miles, their hearts were touched when they looked at Gu Zhengchen, who was struggling to advance at the end. With a thin body and having never undergone high-intensity training, he actually ran down.
He did it!
Lin Tukeng, Wan Zaodao, Shi An and other sergeants looked at Gu Zhengchen with admiration. At this moment, Gu Zhengchen won the hearts of the people.
Gu Zhengchen finally finished running ten miles. Xiao Cheng helped Gu Zhengchen unload his heavy backpack. He watched Gu Zhengchen gasp for air with his hands on his legs and said with admiration: "You can run down, which is really beyond my expectation. "
Xiao Cheng knew Gu Zhengchen very well and knew his physical ability.
Gu Zhengchen straightened up and took a step forward. His legs were a little wobbly. He raised his hands and said to Xiao Cheng and Lin Baifan who wanted to help him: "It doesn't matter, what's the next training? Three hundred push-ups, right?" no problem!"
The corners of Xiao Cheng's mouth moved.
Indeed, push-ups are not a big problem for Gu Zhengchen. He has the habit of doing push-ups and sit-ups on weekdays, but he usually does a hundred. He has just run ten miles, so how can he have the strength to do three more? One hundred push-ups?
Gu Zhengchen adjusted his breath well, looked at the sergeants who had already lined up, and shouted: "As a sergeant, if you don't have a strong body, you will die on the battlefield! Every drop of sweat and every bit of hard work you are doing now will be In order to survive on the battlefield, kill the enemies who want to kill you! Three hundred push-ups, start!"
"start!"
the sergeant shouted.
Gu Zhengchen started doing push-ups. He felt okay at first, but as he went on he felt more and more exhausted. Long-distance running consumed too much physical energy, and his legs were shaking a little when walking. Even if he often did push-ups on weekdays, it would be difficult to hold on at this time.
After finishing one hundred and twenty times, Gu Zhengchen lay down on the ground tiredly. Xiao Cheng and Lin Baifan persuaded him, but Gu Zhengchen only took a short rest before starting to exercise again.
Gu Zhengchen's arms trembled, and he clenched his teeth every time he supported himself. Big beads of sweat continued to drip from his forehead, and some sweat flowed into his eyes.
When all the sergeants completed 300 push-ups, Gu Zhengchen only managed 182.
The sergeants looked at Gu Zhengchen, and Huang Senping, Yu Siye, Qu Huan, Huang Bannian and other generals also stared at Gu Zhengchen.
Gu Zhengchen forced himself up again and did a push-up tremblingly. This time he stood up and stayed longer before falling down.
Everyone knows that Gu Zhengchen has no physical strength now, and all he relies on is his strong will, the will not to give up!
Huang Senping didn't expect that Gu Zhengchen was so tenacious and could persist in reaching two hundred even under the limit. Seeing Gu Zhengchen fall down from exhaustion again, he couldn't help but stepped forward and shouted: "Commander Gu, the remaining one hundred I'll do it for you!"
Speaking, Huang Senping leaned forward again.
"I come!"
Yu Siye followed up.
"Let's!"
The sergeants moved one after another, and eventually the entire guard camp was mobilized.
Xiao Cheng and Kong Yin watched all the soldiers doing push-ups together. For Gu Zhengchen, at this moment, an invisible force united everyone.
The human heart is actually very simple. If you can share the joys and sorrows with them, they will obey. If they can live and die together, they dare to hand over their lives.
In the end, Gu Zhengchen did not insist on finishing, and his physical strength could not support him at all. When all the sergeants finished the remaining one hundred push-ups, Gu Zhengchen looked at all the sergeants, nodded slightly, raised his right hand, and shouted: "For the wife behind you. Son, for the sake of the people behind you, for the Ming Dynasty, train, become stronger, and become a brave and fearless warrior!"
"train!"
Huang Senping shouted at the top of his lungs.
The sergeant no longer has any resentment, and even a scholar can do this. So what reason do we rough guys have to slack off and complain?
Besides, commanders, Qianhu, and Baihu are all training!
No one is lazy, no one is exception!
train!
Gu Zhengchen did not leave. Instead, he and the sergeant picked up the spear and wanted to stand with the spear in hand. But Gu Zhengchen found that he could not hold the tail of the gun barrel and lift the entire gun in one breath.
Xiao Cheng whispered: "Holding a spear is a test of arm strength. With your current arm strength and physical fitness, you can only hold a stick up to your eyebrows. For a long spear like this, you need to at least use a small bow to hold it..."
Gu Zhengchen was too lazy to pay attention to this guy. He knew he was coming today, but he didn't know how to prepare a light gun. If he couldn't lift it by grabbing the tail, I would grab the middle. Isn't it very easy?
Xiao Cheng despises Gu Zhengchen and even uses you to hold the gun when he catches him in the middle. This is to train your arm strength, not for you to pose...
Gu Zhengchen didn't care, as long as he followed the practice and didn't quit, it would be a victory.
Half an hour later, Xiao Cheng looked at Gu Zhengchen who was lying on the ground. That means you should get up.
Gu Zhengchen wanted to curse. Who put "smashing the back on the ground" into the training? Why didn't I know about this item? Oh, sweeping monk, you are training to resist beatings, right? OK, let's continue...
"It's not a fall, it's a hit on the ground!"
"It's a direct hit! Your posture is wrong. How about I find you a tree?"
"Your sister's Xiao Cheng!"
Gu Zhengchen persisted for a whole day. He was in a daze and felt that his body was falling apart. He didn't dare to walk, so he just stood there, fearing that if he took a step forward, his body would fall out of control.
Even if he reached his limit, Gu Zhengchen still tried to stand up straight. Looking at the sergeants who had gathered again in the dusk, he didn't have the energy to say anything. He only shouted two words: "Disband!"
This time, none of the sergeants fell to the ground, but dragged their bodies tiredly and left.
Huang Senping walked towards Gu Zhengchen, his eyes full of admiration. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Xiao Cheng wave his hand, and then saw Gu Zhengchen close his eyes and fall down.
Lin Baifan caught Gu Zhengchen, carried him on his back, and said to Huang Senping, Xiao Cheng and others: "I will take the master back to the government office first."
Huang Senping nodded, watching Lin Baifan take Gu Zhengchen away, and said to Si Ye and others: "Look, the reason why he can become a Quanzhou County man and hold a title is that he is not a simple person. This extraordinary will, How many tenacious spirits can be found in the entire guard camp? His body has already reached its limit, but he can still persist until the final disbandment..."
Yu Siye admitted that he was impressed by Gu Zhengchen's performance.
Although he did not participate in the entire training, he trained here for a full day and persisted to the end in a orderly manner with the Quanzhou Guards! For a weak civil servant, this is simply a miracle.
Return to the government office.
Zhang Xiwan felt heartbroken when she saw Gu Zhengchen, who was seriously overdrafted and fell into a coma. His back was covered in blood, and when he took off his clothes, he found a large scrape of skin.
Maid Xiaohe quickly went to get some alcohol. Zhang Xiwan personally disinfected Gu Zhengchen. Even though it was painful, Gu Zhengchen still didn't wake up and just moaned a few times.
Zhang Xiwan asked Xiao He to prepare some ginseng soup. Looking at the sleeping Gu Zhengchen, he sighed from time to time and complained in a low voice: "I always torture myself. The whipping from Jurong Guard and the Quanzhou Guard's training this day. Why bother to come? It's obvious that It needs to be like this..."
The night is silent.
Zhang Xiwan lay on the bed and fell asleep.
A figure appeared outside the window, and then climbed through the window and entered.
Gu Zhengchen seemed to feel something. He opened his eyes slightly and turned his head to look at the room. He used the starlight to see who was coming clearly. He frowned and said, "Get out of here. She is an acquaintance. It's okay."
Lin Baifan put away his crossbow and walked out of the window.
Yan Sangsang glanced out the window and said with some alarm, "There are quite a few masters around you."
Gu Zhengchen sighed helplessly: "It's not like the government office won't let you in. You always come in at night, so you're not worried that it's like the first time? Tell me, why are you here?"
Yan Sangsang glanced at Zhang Xiwan, who had not woken up, and said to Gu Zhengchen: "Lin Chengyi followed your suggestion and saved his life for the stone carving craftsmen in Shuangxikou and Hui'an County. She heard that many overseas countries believe in Buddhism , I want to carve a batch of Buddha statues and Buddhist objects and borrow a boat to go out to sea. I just don’t know if it’s feasible. Let me ask you what you mean.”
Gu Zhengchen wanted to sit up, but found that he had no strength at all and the muscles all over his body ached so much that he had to give up and said softly: "Exporting stone sculptures overseas is indeed a good idea, but it is not suitable now. Tell Lin Chengyi, San Within a month, some monks will go south to Shuangxi Kou, and then we can discuss it directly with the monks."
"Can you invite the monk?"
Yan Sangsang asked.
Gu Zhengchen chuckled and said, "That's right. Let Lin Chengyi and the villagers in Shuangxikou prepare a batch of Buddhist sculptures. It's best not to be too big. It's not easy to transport stone sculptures."
Yan Sangsang nodded and pointed at Zhang Xiwan: "Is she your wife?"
Gu Zhengchen smiled: "Yes."
Yan Sangsang was silent for a moment, walked to the window, and turned around and said, "Not to mention where Lin Chengyi is, but Baili Yao is your maid, when will you take her back to the magistrate's house?"
Gu Zhengchen's expression changed and he quickly said: "What nonsense are you talking about..."
Yan Sangsang smiled evilly and flipped it out easily.
Gu Zhengchen looked at Zhang Xiwan uneasily. Seeing that Zhang Xiwan made no movement, he closed his eyes, took a few breaths, and then said: "Let me make it clear first, I have nothing to do with them, and I didn't buy any maids. She said that on purpose. Yes. If you want to pretend to be asleep, can you first release your hand from squeezing me? It hurts..."
