The growing up days passed quickly day by day, and a year passed in a flash. Wu Feng led the entire team of the second team to participate in intense training during this year. Through training, Wu Feng quickly became familiar with the soldiers of the team. , everyone saw that Wu Feng was completely different from other nobles, without any of the arrogance, arrogance, and arrogance of ordinary nobles, so they gradually became close to him, and Wu Feng gradually got to know his subordinates.

Liang Chongxin was born in a wealthy workshop owner's family in Huzhou Prefecture, Jiangnan County of the Empire. His family was a paper maker. Huzhou's four treasures of study, pens, inks, paper and inkstones, are famous all over the world. Many talented people, literary figures, poets and painters are fond of Huzhou's four treasures of study, especially several years ago. Things from this famous workshop are in short supply in the imperial capital Zhongzhou. High-quality paper also has many requirements. From selecting raw materials to processing into finished products, it needs to go through multiple procedures and the workmanship is also very particular.

The Liang family has been dealing in raw paper for generations. The products produced are then handed over to several well-known paper-making workshops for complex deep processing, and finally flow into the market, becoming the famous Lake Paper in mainland China. Liang Chongxin was the eldest son of this generation, but he was not interested in the business that his family had run for generations. Instead, he loved studying and practicing martial arts. The elders in the family were also relatively open-minded, so he was left to his own devices. He had nothing serious to do until he was in his twenties. Liang Chongxin felt a little ashamed. Four years ago, he enlisted in the army without telling his family. He claimed to the outside world that he was traveling around and wanted to make some achievements, honor his ancestors, and return home in glory.

Due to his outstanding performance in the army, he was promoted to squad leader two years ago. However, because he was born as a free citizen and had no connections with the superiors, he was never promoted to squad leader, and Wu Feng was transferred from a new recruit to serve as squad leader. Captain, so many comrades in arms were upset about this matter. Wu Feng only gradually learned about these things after getting familiar with the soldiers.

Wu Feng also sighed. With Liang Chongxin's ability, not to mention a small captain, even a captain or even a co-captain, Wu Feng believed that he could also be qualified. The empire's bureaucracy that valued family background and qualifications had buried so many talents. No wonder The empire's national strength is deteriorating day by day, and neighboring countries are eyeing it, provoking border conflicts from time to time, waiting for opportunities to launch wars in order to obtain benefits. Some powerful feudal ministers inside were also ready to take action, obeying and violating the court's orders, and there was a feeling that a storm was about to come. The empire was also aware of this, so it strengthened its armaments to prevent trouble before it happened. Through frequent contact and conversation with his subordinate soldiers, Wu Feng developed a closer relationship between officers and soldiers and discovered many useful talents.

One of them, a yellow-haired young man named Lu Man, came from a commoner family in Huanggang Prefecture, Wuhu County. Although he was not good at martial arts, he was very proficient in military logistics and was very knowledgeable in conversation. It turns out that his family is a large local landowner, and they are engaged in the grain, cloth, and alcohol business, and are quite famous in the local area. Although Lu Man was born as a concubine, his mother was a concubine his father married when he was doing business abroad. She was a mixed-race woman, but she was quite favored by his father, so he learned business management from his family during his spare time when he was a child. He was influenced by things, and he was also very talented in this area. He soon gained the recognition of the family, but it also aroused the jealousy of several other brothers, so they joined forces to spread rumors and slander him, even his My father also believed it, and he became angry and joined the army. Wu Feng feels that although this aspect is not useful now, as the situation develops, this person will definitely be of use to him if he hone it. Therefore, he expressed great appreciation for Luhmann's knowledge in this area and encouraged him to learn more and practice more, and he would definitely be able to use it in the future.

Most of Wu Feng's team are recruits who have recently joined the army, but they are all about 20 years old. They are all in good physical fitness and train very hard. They just lack combat experience and need to be trained in actual combat in the future.

The 3rd Division where Wu Feng is located is a mixed division, and the 5th Brigade of the 4th Regiment is a light infantry brigade. Since it is newly formed, some veterans are transferred from other units to serve as the backbone to strengthen the combat effectiveness. After more than a year of hard training for the team, Wu Feng's combat effectiveness has been greatly improved. During this period, Wu Feng taught the soldiers a breathing adjustment method originally taught by his master. This method can quickly restore the tired body, although it has no other effects. But it is very helpful in physical fitness training, making the physical fitness of the entire squad of soldiers greatly exceed that of other squads.

When Wu Feng was traveling around the mainland, he studied at the world-famous Heidelberg University in the Western Continent on a work-study basis for half a year. He was involved in the politics, military, economy, culture and art of the Western Continent, but due to time constraints , focusing mainly on the study and research of military affairs. Wu Feng wanted to compare the military strategic and tactical thoughts of the Eastern and Western continents, use strengths and avoid weaknesses, and find an optimal way to strengthen the construction and management of the army. It's just that the time is not yet mature and it cannot be used in practice.

Time flies by quickly, another year has passed in the blink of an eye, and the calendar has turned to the year 689 in the Gregorian calendar. During this period, the team led by Wu Feng performed outstandingly in routine queue training, tactical drills, and individual combat competitions. In addition, Wu Feng's performance His approachable and approachable style was very different from that of many other officers from noble families. He was also favored by squadron and brigade leaders who were civilians. He was promoted to captain of the third squadron, and the former captain of the third squadron was transferred to the first squadron. He served as squadron leader, replacing the former squadron leader of the 1st Squadron who retired due to injury. With Wu Feng's recommendation and activities, Liang Chongxin was also promoted to deputy squadron leader of the third squadron, and his military rank was promoted to sergeant. Kang Jianguo was also promoted to captain of the third squadron and his military rank was promoted due to his outstanding performance in individual combat. As a corporal.

Liang Chongxin now sees his immediate boss more and more clearly. After two years of contact, he has gone from dissatisfaction to admiration. Wu Feng's broad knowledge, profound insights into the current situation, and skillful application of military knowledge have made Liang Chongxin confident. Sigh. And this time Wu Feng was promoted to squadron leader and strongly recommended himself to be his deputy. For such a leapfrog promotion, I thought that the superiors would not agree to it, and I had no hope, but I don’t know what means he used to get it approved smoothly. .

Looking back on the performance of my young boss over the past two years, I feel that in addition to his superhuman abilities and extensive knowledge, this young boss also has a childish face that is very mature and shrewd befitting his age. Although I am very familiar with him and can even talk about everything, I still can't see through the true face of this person. He also gave himself some military-related books from various countries in the mainland and asked him to study more. What is this man thinking in his mind and what is his ultimate purpose in joining the army? These questions are all a mystery, but Liang Chongxin believes that he is definitely not a simple person, and his care and help for him are also real. Thinking back to how he was treated in the army before, but now that Wu Feng values him so much, he is just an insignificant person and doesn't need to think about it so much. If a soldier dies for his confidant, it doesn't matter if he gives his life to him.

After taking office as the captain of the third squadron, Wu Feng immediately launched a training campaign in the entire squadron. Wu Feng asked other squads to follow the example of the second squadron. The training results of the second squadron were obvious to all other squadrons. Wu Feng was still in the squadron. It was announced at the soldiers conference that this intensive training will last for three months. The purpose is to improve the overall combat capability of the team. Each team is required to strive to catch up with or exceed the combat effectiveness of the second team. This training is led by Deputy Squadron Leader Liang Chongxin. Organize implementation and assessment. During training, if there is any dissatisfaction with the manager, military law will be strictly enforced. Those with outstanding performance will be promoted as exceptions.

Wu Feng's words were like pouring water into boiling oil, and the soldiers were all talking about it, because Liang Chongxin was promoted from squad leader to deputy squadron leader, and Kang Jianguo was directly promoted from an ordinary soldier to squad leader, and his military rank was also changed. After being promoted to two levels in a row, the soldiers and officers were both envious and envious, not to mention that these two people refused to accept the challenge when Wu Feng first became the squad leader. This time there was another opportunity for training, and everyone was gearing up, eager to show off their skills and win recognition and reuse from their superiors.

Just when the whole squadron was in a fever for training, Wu Feng did not take the lead and attend everything in person like the previous time. Instead, he only asked Liang Chongxin to increase training supervision, pay attention to training methods and methods, and strive to achieve the best results, but he did not do it from time to time. Going out into the city seems particularly mysterious. Although Liang Chongxin was a little confused, he still followed Wu Feng's requirements, organized training every day, personally supervised the assessment, and extended the methods originally implemented in the second team to the entire squadron.
